![]() Odd enough, DropDMG is executed (I made sure the app. HD, SD! incrementally updates the sparseimgae but gives me an error-message at the end that states “| Error | /Library/Scripts/Eigene Scripts/dropdmgmozy: line 2: dropdmg: command not found” When I run SD! with the smartupdate option to update the sparseimage that already exists on the volume “Archiv 2” of the ext. Open SD! and attach the shell script in the advanced option pane “Run shell script after copy completes”.Then Enter to give the file executable permission (I dragged the file into the Terminal and made sure there is a blank between the x and the first / ) Save the file as “dropdmgmozy” without extensionĬhmod +x /Library/Scripts/Eigene\ Scripts/dropdmgmozy.dropdmg -config-name "BackUp_Mozy" "/Volumes/Archiv 2/BackUp_Mozy_DiskImage.sparseimage" In order to make sure I’m not messing up anything with the script, here is how I proceeded about creating the shell script:ġ. I used the shell script (2.a) as you suggested but keep getting an error message from SD! once the sparseimage has been smartupdated. I’m utterly sorry to keep you busy with my problem and very much thank you for your patience! I think I’m doing something fundamentally wrong here. Sorry to trouble you again but I’m somehow still a little stuck here… Will the shell script (and the associated Applescript) prompt DropDMG to overwrite an existing, previously created dmg which is still in place? | Error | 17:48:02.014 osascript *** _NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x334390 of class NSPathStore2 autoreleased with no pool in place - just leakingīy the way, I tried the smartupdating twice, just to make sure I didn’ get a onetime error and got the same error-report on the second attempt, too. When I afterwards tried to “smartupdate” the sparseimage using SD!'s built-in script to incrementally backup (or rewrite) the sparseimage (which is meant to be part of my future auto-backup-procedure), I got the following error-message: “Failed to run the shell script dropdmg” and the SD! logfile pointed out the following error: The log in the main window of DropDMG pointed out: 24.07.08 17:11 Converted to “BackUp_Mozy.dmg”.īoth the sparseimage created by SD!

By Setting “Always run with root access” and “Quit when done” within DropDMG the whole process ran automatically. Thanks Michael for your instructions! I opted for #2 b): shell script in conjunction with Applescript and that worked - well only once…Īlthough I still got an error message from SD!: “Failed to run shell script…” SD! on that first attempt created the sparseimage (which was created from scratch - on an empty external volume) and successfully handed over to DropDMG which then created the compressed, encrypted dmg. ![]()
